CHICAGO, ILL, May % AT the opening of
wheat market June was in demand at SS4ic;
July at SIC. This was for only moment, then
July sold at $500 end June at SSjsc. There
was very little trade in the latter month, but 1t
was fair sign oftbc circumspection with which
raiders, after their past three days experience,
regard the wheat clique. AL of the
news received early IN the morning
was of bearish nature. The foreign
markets were barely steady, and crop
reports from the northwest were very catering
for new crop. During the first hour June I'D
vanced to $3.50, and had many bidders at that
figure. July hung around s624 GS7c. Then
came quite a furry In June wheat and the
difference between June and July, which was
&c yesterday, widened to 2'6c at one time TO- TO-;
buying demand from small scattering
sorts in the crowd. The den and was
almost entirely from people who were short
Sc, los and 2Vs. and the clique were taken Dy
surprise. 1t was not Rtheir intention to allow
prices to advance, but they had no orders to
sell, and before thsy had known 1t June h'd
advanced from SS5ac to S92Sc. By the II ne June
had reached the latter figure kershaw was In the
pitwlth plenty of selling orders He very quickly
disposed of from 100000 to 30O0C0 bushels In
small lots. Shortly after he began selling the

and S91ic 1t remained steady some time. During
the afternoon session Jane quieted down and
closed at SSzsC. July wheat was shade
weaker and sod down to S64i assoc. Corn
was firm at the start but 1t weakened a minute
